STORM LAKE PILOT - Wed, Oct 18, 1876 - Died in Storm Lake, Iowa Oct 4, 1876 Bessie E, daughter of Harriet E and J.M. Russell, aged 16 months.

Sixteen months ago The Pilot announced the birth of twins at the house of Mr Russell and today we chronicle the death of one of the pair. A few weeks ago the bloom of youth was upon the cheek of the lovely child which now lies in the cold embrace of Death.

The funeral took place on the 15th last, and was largely attended. Appropriate and impressive services were conducted by the Rev. I.A. Eberhart, Pastor of the Liberal Christian Association. The spirit of the sermon was that this is not all of life - that in the Great Beyond - and in Gods own good time, the loved ones of Earth shall be reunited never more to be separated.
